31 The intent is to support additional services in the future. | |
32 | |
33 The goal of boto is to provide a very simple, easy to use, lightweight | |
34 wrapper around the Amazon services. Not all features supported by the | |
35 Amazon Web Services will be supported in boto. Basically, those | |
36 features I need to do what I want to do are supported first. Other | |
37 features and requests are welcome and will be accomodated to the best | |
38 of my ability. Patches and contributions are welcome! | |

40 Boto was written using Python 2.6.5 on Mac OSX. It has also been tested | |
41 on Linux Ubuntu using Python 2.6.5. Boto requires no additional | |
42 libraries or packages other than those that are distributed with Python 2.6.5. | |
43 Efforts are made to keep boto compatible with Python 2.4.x but no | |
44 guarantees are made. | |

53 Your credentials can be passed into the methods that create | |
54 connections. Alternatively, boto will check for the existance of the | |
55 following environment variables to ascertain your credentials: | |
56 | |
57 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID - Your AWS Access Key ID | |
58 AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY - Your AWS Secret Access Key | |
59 | |
60 Credentials and other boto-related settings can also be stored in a boto config | |
61 file. See: | |
